  Hi,

  As explained in README.md, we do not need to touch the raw git repository (https://codeberg.org/klayoutmatthias/xsection.git) if we simply use the package.
  

  Installation step
  
  
  
  
  
  

  ---

  Sample run
  
  

  When running a .xs script for the first time, select "Run Script" and choose the .xs file.
  The recent scripts are stored in $HOME/.klayout-xsection.

  sekigawa@ubuntu:~ cat $HOME/.klayout-xsection
  <xsection>
  <mru>/home/sekigawa/GitWork/ForumKLayout/Forum/Forum2890/cmos.xs</mru>
  </xsection>

  We need to clone the repository to run tests and generate HTML documents.

  Run tests

  MacMiniKS{sekigawa} xsection (1)% cd tests
  
  MacMiniKS{sekigawa} tests (2)% ./run_tests.sh
  /Applications/klayout-std.app/Contents/MacOS/klayout
  Using KLayout binary from: /Applications/klayout-std.app/Contents/MacOS/klayout

  I have followed your instruction previously and again after following your instructions.

  Seems quite simple but doesn't work. I have been using the cross-section tool for many years and have a number of Ruby process flows generated and don't want to lose that work.

  I have downloaded the www.klayout.org 1.0 - Ruby scripts with no problems using this approach.

  I was able to copy the salt directory from my old computer and place it in the KLayout folder on the new computer. I can now run xsection. At least the 1.4 version.
